DeathThe Essential Teachings

Quotes from this Album:

“To eternity, death has no impact; death is more like changing the scene in a play, changing your clothes at the end of the day.”

“What you are is never born, never lives, and never dies. Birth, life, and death happen within what you are.”

“When the fear of death comes up, say yes.”

“Because our associations with death are wholly negative, we don’t see that death is an intrinsic part of life.”

“When you realize what you are now, the issue of death will solve itself.”
